麻豆约拍

By Martin Jameson

A quantum cryptocurrency audio heist movie and psychological tech thriller exploring the illusory nature of money itself.

Bit 鈥� real name Rebecca 鈥淏ecky鈥� Isobel Troughton, BIT, get it? 鈥� is in trouble. Big trouble. She鈥檚 only gone and hacked into US mainframes and brought the entire eastern seaboard to a standstill. And now she鈥檚 on everybody鈥檚 Most Wanted list.

But Bit is no hacking 鈥榞un for hire鈥�. She鈥檚 driven by principle and she鈥檚 the very best at what she does. So when shady government organisations come knocking in a bid to secure her services, she just sends them packing. Well, sort of.

But there are some offers even Bit can鈥檛 refuse. Like the search for 494 million鈥檚 worth of missing iPromises - a brand-new un-hackable cryptocurrency that鈥檚 the sexy place to put your pennies.

But before Bit can even think about those 800 giant servers in the middle of an Icelandic wilderness, there are more pressing matters to deal with closer to home. Like finding a safe place to live and avoiding her estranged father. And why does she feel like she鈥檚 being followed?

In Bit鈥檚 head, the references to The Wizard of Oz keep stacking up, but we are definitely not in Kansas anymore.
